Ratsadathirat (Thai: รัษฎาธิราช, Raṣṭādhirāj) was the twelfth king of Ayutthaya, an ancient kingdom in Thailand. He was a son of Borommarachathirat IV and succeeded his father to the throne of Ayutthaya at the age of five in 895 LE (2076 BE, 1533/34 CE).[1] The following year, after having been on the throne for five months, he was put to death by his relative,[2] Chairachathirat, who then assumed the kingship.[1]
